Following the failure of the club’s negotiations with Nasreddine Nabi, a vocal former Kaizer Chiefs defender has claimed that it is high time the team made the necessary adjustments to keep up with modern football trends.
The Chiefs-Nabi contract negotiations came to a standstill because both parties could not agree on a few key points, as FARPost has reported.
On Wednesday, Amakhosi took a choice that surprised many people when they named Molefi Ntseki as their new head coach. Arthur Zwane is replaced as head coach by the former Bafana Bafana coach.
Nabi was ready to join Chiefs, but there was a problem: Chiefs weren’t willing to let him bring two members of his technical team.
On the other hand, Nabi wished to include the third.
The Tunisian coach thought he should bring in a personal player. A PhD in exercise science holder named Helmi Gueldich opposes the Chiefs’ claim that Muzi Maluleke is their effective conditioning coach.
Dominic Isaacs, a former defender for The Glamour Boys, has expressed his opinions on the subject. He feels it is only just for a new coach to arrive with his own technical staff, one he can rely on to have a better chance of winning.
ON THE KAIZER CHIEFS COACH ISSUE: DOMINIC ISAACS
Football coaches frequently change teams with the help of their own reliable technical staff, which now frequently includes Pitso Mosimane.
Without his three dependable lieutenants and fellow countrymen Kyle Solomon, Musi Matlaba, and Kabelo Rangoaga, Mosimane never leaves the house. With them, he recently joined Al Wahda FC in Abu Dhabi, adding two further players of his choosing.
According to Isaacs, the Chiefs also have the right to have their supporters around the head coach at the end of the day.
But because modern football managers travel with their own technical staff, Isaacs continued, “It would have been very expensive to fire the essential backroom staff.
Additionally, Isaacs, a former Chiefs player from 2008 to 2012, lambasted the team for how it handled the Arthur Zwane situation while Nabi was there.
Zwane signed a three-year contract before the 2022–2023 season began. The Soweto-born coach’s career got off to a rocky start as he failed to take home any trophies or qualify for inter-club play.
However, he believed that the Chiefs should have decided by this point whether to keep Arthur Zwane as their coach or to hunt for a replacement.
It’s bad for the club as a whole because everyone is looking to them for clarification.The fact that the Chiefs are keeping quiet about their plans or refusing to clarify whether they intend to keep Zwane or not is also quite instructive.
